More Midrise Apartments for Midtown

They’re both Pearls. But one of these Morgan Group renderings is destined for a lot in Midtown; the other for Greenway Plaza. Can you tell which is going where?

OK, it’s an easy one. The geometrical juts and concrete slab-ish facades you can see above seem all-too-Midtown, don’t they? Morgan Group is planning the 5-story project for a 1.14-acre lot bound by Elgin, Smith, Louisiana, and Rosalie. (The other of their Pearl-brand buildings is set to open next month at 3788 Richmond.) The Pearl Midtown will be going in across the street from High Fashion Fabrics and Sushi Raku. Best of all, the Houston Business Journal reports, the apartments will be within “walking distance” of the northern end of the Midtown Superblock.
